2)It doesn't sound like you can actually 'request' anything specific, rather you set categories, media types, and download limits and let it run. My guess is they just spider the top 5 TGPs every day and bleed that file list to users when the program runs. The software can only access the same things that a regular browser can access. htaccess holds up no matter what piece of shit software is requesting resources.
3)Its perfectly legal. These guys are not publishing or stealing copyright material at all. They are simply selling a special purpose browser that is fundamentally not very different than any other auto-downloader or even IE or NS for that matter.

I guess the thing is, wont take as many sales of it to make some decent $$$ so conversion ratios aren't *that* important. Second point has merit too, if your shit is protected then I doubt they can access it. And thirdly, there are already heaps of specific browsers for all sorts of content, so no, its not illegal at all. All the best to them I say.
